Hi Trish,

Wales is a wonderful place to walk – I was there many years ago and loved it (don’t ask me where I went – it was too long ago!).

I have attached a map of Auckland Domain with red/brown dotted lines being walking tracks. You can download official walks for the Auckland Domain from the bottom of the page(under the water lily photo) here: Auckland City Domain

Have fun! Helen

This project began in 2011. My friend Grace was the walk creator – with her knowledge of Auckland, she could “see” circular routes, and then it was up to me to map out, photograph, research and document the routes. At first, I relied upon my voice recorder and Google maps but then with the advancement of technology, the smart phone became a best friend and I was able to track our route. The best fun was when we were both pleasantly surprised by what there was to see. Beautiful wetlands, views and bush kept us inspired to explore more.
